Joshuamonkey, here is a good example of how to do that.

You are most welcome.

Dudel is smart, he should be listened to more often.

I'm just trying to be honest. Ignore the post if you wish, but you're right. I probably should have just put "I can translate."

Can we change the fuel meters to be green instead of red? Red bars in any other context means bad things is going on. I get half scared to death when checking my environments from my vehicle. :)

See, now that it's implemented, I don't want it anymore! Haha, major inconvenience, but meh.

How slow will the vehicles go when fuelless? Like, slower than walking?

Is anyone keeping track of some stat like motor vehicle trips per day? I am curious how much it fell on January 1.

This change hasn't even effected me or my play style, yet. The only character it would effect just doesn't give enough of a care to find/make fuel. It's easier and more efficient to just let the vehicle rot. :lol:

All vehicles (as far as I know) with engines were given fuel, so it wouldn't be a very significant change. In the future though, I would expect it to have a big impact.

Still don't know exactly how it works. How do you refill the gas tank? ( I've seen you can empty it.) Can you mix fuels in the same tank? (And if so, is it like food, and you use the least efficient first?) Is the Wiki updated yet? Last I knew, the uses of barley and potatoes in there showed no clue.
All I've done is have my char drive his motor bike for an hour out, and back, to check the fuel consumption. (I know this is to be doubled shortly, but don't know what sort of fuel was pre-loaded, or how the different fuels compare, or the vehicles, for that matter.)

The wiki says how to make alcohol from potatoes with a pot still, but not barley.

You take out and store fuel like a storage. It's the same button.

I think the fuel that have been placed in vehicles is petrol, as I found two of my vehicles filled with it.
